The Story of Ferdinand
Reviewed by Children’s Book List
A true classic with a timeless message, this story about a docile bull who would rather smell flowers than engage in the bullfights in Madrid is now packaged with a compact disc featuring a professional reading of the unabridged story.
Rating: 5 *****
Ferdinand stays tried and true to who he is no matter how much they provoke him. This is a nice story focusing on individuality.
It is Yoko’s first day at school, so of course her mother wants to sendher off with healthy comfort food for lunch–a delectable package of homemade sushi. “Have a wonderful day at school, my Little Cherry Blossom,”her mother says as Yoko climbs into the bus. And it would have been, had it not been for lunchtime.
Rating: *****
My son loved this book and now can’t wait to try sushi. It’s a great book to talk about differences and trying new things.
